Elegant Krishna Idol with Cow and Tree – Traditional Indian Handicraft

Standing Krishna with Cow — Cast Metal Work from Jaipur

Lord Krishna stands playing the flute, a cow resting beside him, both under a spreading tree that forms the backdrop of the piece. It is one of the most familiar images of Krishna as Govinda, the protector of cattle, and the composition carries that sense of quiet companionship rather than grandeur.

Metal and finish

The idol is cast in metal and finished in an antique tone, so the recessed areas stay darker while the raised detailing catches light. The flute, the folds of the dhoti, the cow's form and the leaves of the tree are all worked in relief. Being a handmade piece, small variations in the finish are normal.

Gifting
